Tyrant of green giants, signed Guardiola at the beginning

Chapter 343: Halftime decides the outcome!

Manchester United's entire defense retreated.

Both Leeds United center backs entered Manchester United's penalty area to ambush.

Ronaldo is naturally also in the penalty area.

Robben and Deisler are ready to respond on the two wings outside the penalty area.

The full-backs and double midfielders are always ready to intercept the opponent's counterattack in front of the center line.

Modric stood in front of the ball and took the penalty.

Everyone seems to think that this is a direct free kick in the frontcourt on the right, Modric should choose to hoist the ball into the penalty area.

But after the referee's whistle blew, Modric chose to send the ball short to the nearest Robben's feet.

Manchester United's Ronaldo, Evra, and Tevez immediately went towards Robben.

As soon as Robben started his action, he passed the ball back from mid-range.

Belletti quickly passed the ball to the center from the right side of the frontcourt.

Manchester United's forwards and midfielders pushed forward, trying to interfere with Leeds United's organization.

It seems that Leeds United failed to score a direct free kick this time.

Because Manchester United's forward players are fast, rushing towards Robben does not allow him to create a threat of crossing from the bottom or cutting inside into the penalty area.

However, Jamie Redknapp, who was almost a defender in front of the center line, passed the ball diagonally to the left side of the frontcourt during the reception.

Van Bronckhorst made a quick movement and moved forward with stops and passes.

When Wes Brown didn't dare to attack, Carrick helped defend the wing, but the distance was a bit far.

Before he could get close, Van Bronckhorst sent a direct pass.

Deisler took the opportunity to move forward to get rid of Wes Brown, stopped the ball at the edge of the penalty area, made adjustments, and then sent a cross ball in place.

Ronaldo moved toward the front of the penalty area, leading Vidic to defend, but Ferdinand looked at the flight path of the football from the front and moved toward the back.

The result was that the trio appeared to be loading up the car.

Kompany tangled up with Hargreaves.

When the football went through a parabola and fell towards the back of the penalty area, the unmarked Helguera took off and shook his head to attack the goal!

Van der Sar made a hasty save while moving quickly, but was beaten by Helguera's almost in-your-face output. He could only try his luck to see if he could save the day.

The result is that the football flies directly into the goal!

Elland Road was filled with cheers.

Leeds United fans were ecstatic.

"Elgra scored with a header! The former royal guard with a sword, now the guard with a sword in white, scored a golden goal in the final battle for the championship!"

"This free kick combination is really unique. I thought the right wing would be the main direction of attack, but I didn't expect it was just a containment. The attack was transferred very quickly. It was obviously carefully drilled!"

"This can be regarded as Brother Hao's style. When he has matured a technical and tactical system, he will pay close attention to the details, so that the team can show a deeper and more delicate cooperation in the battle. Keep improving and never end!"

"Leeds United leads Manchester United 2:1. The advantage is not big. The gap is not completely widened yet, but in general we are more comfortable now."

Helgra ran to the sideline to celebrate with her head held high proudly.

Ronaldo was extremely happy and was the first to rush to hug the other person to congratulate him.

As former teammates of Real Madrid, they put on the same jersey again in Leeds, still winning in white.

But this time, what they wrote was Lao Ji Fu Fang, ambitious and never die!

Helguera slapped the team emblem on his jersey to the Leeds fans, proud and excited.

Being abandoned by Real Madrid was the biggest blow in his career, but he found an unexpected rebirth at Leeds United.

Even if the sun goes down, it will still burn and roar!

The faces of Leeds United fans were filled with triumphant smiles.

Leading Manchester United again!

And the goal was extremely exciting.

The smooth, tacit and murderous teamwork seems to have launched a dimensionality reduction attack on Manchester United.

Manchester United fans panicked.

This trend is not quite right.

Not only did Leeds United take the lead twice, but the quality of their offense is getting better and better!

The situation made them increasingly frightened.

Ferguson's face on the sidelines had become very gloomy at this time.

It's like waking up from a dream, with enlightenment.

I saw that Leeds United used set pieces to play well-designed tactical coordination.

Ferguson realized an important factor that he had overlooked.

In the past six months, Manchester United's growth has been visible to the naked eye.

Some players have become stronger, and positions and roles that were previously weak have been strengthened.

In this regard, they do seem to have made more significant progress than Leeds United.

But Leeds United have not been waiting to die in the past six months.

The team's technical and tactical system is continuously polished and strengthened, and at the same time, it has the energy and ability to carry out more ingenious designs in terms of tactical coordination.

Manchester United can repeatedly attack and destroy many strong teams with their passion on the field.

But facing Leeds United, no matter in terms of rhythm control or more detailed team coordination, the gap between them and Leeds United will only become obvious when they play against each other.

At this time, Manchester United is riding a tiger and is unable to get off.

You need to score at least two goals to win the championship.

Of course, Ferguson couldn't let his team retreat.

We can only continue to strengthen our offensive.

As long as Manchester United can overtake the score and become first in the Premier League in the real-time standings, Ferguson will inevitably make adjustments to specifically contain Leeds United.

But he also knew it in his heart.

Leeds United may not necessarily give them such a chance.

The mentality of the Manchester United generals began to feel a little depressed.

It seems like we still need to chase two goals.

But there was less time left in the game.

The first half is coming to an end.

Leeds United also basically have a more detailed understanding of Manchester United's style of play.

When Carrick advanced to the frontcourt to meet Scholes' return pass, he sent a wonderful pass to Rooney who had reached the front area of ​​the penalty area. The latter's collision with Tevez against the wall did not lead to the penalty area.

Instead, it cuts across the front edge of the penalty area.

Rooney attracted Leeds United's midfield to surround him.

Taking advantage of this gap, he calmly sent a diagonal pass to the ground.

The football rolled into the left rib area of ​​the penalty area.

Ronaldo cuts inside.

Kompany immediately went to intercept.

When Ronaldo touched the ball, he knocked the ball behind him and Chop changed direction to complete the cross-cut, but the next second Helguera was in front of him.

All the spectators in the stands saw that Tevez, who was not far to the right of Ronaldo, was completely empty.

As long as he passes the ball.

Then Tevez is a one-man swordsman!

But Ronaldo did not pass the ball and continued to move the ball across to find a shooting angle.

Helguera moved to block his shooting angle as much as possible. At the moment when Ronaldo started to shoot, the football that had just been shot was destroyed by Ze Roberto who flew from behind and broke the ball out of the baseline!

Ferguson almost exploded on the sidelines!

"Ze Roberto's flying shovel blocked the key and completed the key rescue!"

"Cristiano Ronaldo, haven't you seen Tevez? As long as he passes the ball, Tevez can at least hit a shot that hits the goal!"

"Haha, he's not alone anymore. He used to do it just to show off his skills, but now he just does it to score goals. But to be fair, with his shooting skills, he is indeed qualified to dominate the fire."

"That's true. In other words, if you give Tevez or Rooney all the power to fire, they may not be able to achieve the terrifying goal efficiency of Ronaldo."

Ronaldo looked up to the sky and sighed.

Leeds United fans gloated.

But Tevez on the court just made a gesture of spreading his hands and had no other reaction.

After all, he is a loaned player, and he is challenging Manchester United's current number one star?

Isn't that self-defeating?

Shen Hao stared at Ronaldo.

strong ability.

Unfortunately it's not perfect.

Of course, no player is perfect.

Ronaldo's desire to score goals is directly linked to his desire to win, but to be precise, he prefers a victory dominated by him.

Instead of marrying others and watching others become heroes.

From a coach's perspective, this can be ignored.

The so-called team interests are greater than personal interests, just like the saying that the team is always greater than the individual, is more like a propaganda slogan on the green field.

When the star's ability can lead the entire team forward, and when the star's personal strength is obviously stronger than all other teammates...the coach can't drive the star away, can he?

It is unfair in itself to desire the star's strength to make outstanding contributions to the team, but cannot accept some of the star's shortcomings.

Because those players who are willing to sacrifice for the team, 99.9% of their strength is not enough to have a decisive effect on the game.

In other words, players who are not among the top stars are not special, because it is not difficult to find replacement or even upgrade options.

And for a star like Ronaldo, who has the ability to start as a superstar, his flaws are not concealed.

But as far as today's important game is concerned, Manchester United did miss an opportunity that might have equalized the score.

The Red Devils fans almost vomited blood.

If it had been two years ago, they would have started spraying.

However, Cristiano Ronaldo has made significant progress in the past two years. This season, Cristiano Ronaldo is indispensable for the fact that Manchester United was able to stage a championship showdown with Leeds United in the final game.

Without him, Manchester United would have been in decline.

Leeds United can now prepare for the championship award ceremony with a relaxed and happy mood.

Manchester United's corner kick was blocked by Jamie Redknapp.

Continue to corner.

This time Scholes lobbed the ball to the back of the penalty area.

Ferdinand and Vidic failed to grab the point, and Rooney's header, which was ambushing at the back point, was blocked by Van Bronckhorst, who was guarding the near post. He also headed it out with his head!

Leeds United fans were relieved and immediately applauded the team's defense.

The football that flew outside the penalty area was controlled by Deisler.

Manchester United started pressing close by, and even if they couldn't steal the ball, they still had to commit fouls to stifle Leeds United's counterattack.

However, Deisler spiked the ball and headed to the left when Carrick grabbed the ball.

Manchester United's generals quickly retreated. At this time, Carrick and Rooney continued to kill Deisler, who controlled the ball and passed back.

Van Bronckhorst just ran to the edge of the penalty area, met the ball and passed the ball directly to the left side of the frontcourt with his left foot.

Ronaldo starts and immediately rushes towards the spot where the football falls.

Only Wes Brown, Hargreaves, and Evra are left in the backcourt.

Wes Brown did not dare to step forward, but retreated, allowing Hargreaves to snipe.

Ronaldo unloaded the ball perfectly on the left side of the frontcourt. He just took a step forward but suddenly braked and pulled the ball in front of him to smash the ball and change direction to the middle.

Hargreaves rushed past him, braked suddenly, turned around and chased after him!

You can't even touch the jersey!

Ronaldo quickly moved forward with the ball, but Manchester United's defense was still empty at this time.

What made Ferguson's head explode on the sidelines was that... Robben was running towards the back of Manchester United's defense.

Wes Brown and Evra were completely unsure of blocking Ronaldo, so Wes Brown took the initiative to foul!

Ronaldo decisively passed the ball to the right when the opponent was still two meters away from him.

After the ball was released, he deliberately bypassed Wes Brown, as if the opponent's inner thoughts were revealed as soon as he came up, and Ronaldo had foreseen it.

Didn't give the opponent a chance to foul.

At this time, Evra can only rush towards Robben to commit a foul, hoping that Wes Brown can retreat quickly, so that at least he will not be the person behind the defense when he fouls. In that case, his foul will be very serious. It might be a red card!

But when Robben cut inside to meet the ball, he kicked the ball!

The diagonal plug was sent behind Wes Brown!

He and Ronaldo's simple passing and cutting cooperation was directly completed!

Ronaldo got rid of Brown and accelerated forward while making frequent stops.

Single-handedly, it’s done!

Leeds United fans were still applauding Van Bronckhorst's goal-line clearance just now. Unexpectedly, Ronaldo turned his head and scored alone!

There was no emotion brewing, everything happened so suddenly.

Red Devils fans are terrified.

I was praying in my heart that Ronaldo would slip, fall down, have garlic under his feet, fail the dribble, and shoot!

Van der Sar bit the bullet and walked out.

What if you don't attack and let world-class shooters take shots at will?

How could it be possible to hold on?

Just when Van der Sar had rushed out of the penalty area, Ronaldo suddenly changed the direction of the ball and moved forward to the right.

Van der Sar also immediately moved that way.

Ronaldo had the upper hand and therefore seemed to have a better shooting angle.

He raised his leg to shoot.

Van der Sar didn't care whether it was true or not at this time, he could only save.

If you hesitate even a little, you may lose the chance to save.

But the moment he jumped out.

Ronaldo spiked the ball to the left, widening the distance from Van der Sar in the opposite direction.

As soon as Van der Sar landed, he turned his head and looked in the direction of his previous location.

It's empty!

Ronaldo doesn't need to be very close to the goal to be sure of getting the ball into the goal.

Van der Sar fell to the ground, he opened the distance laterally, and there was no obstacle. Looking at the goal 30 yards away, Ronaldo shot the ball with his left foot.

Very relaxed look.

The flying football is not very fast, but it is very accurate.

Fly straight towards the center of the goal.

The half-high ball bounced in the small penalty area and then flew into the goal!

Almost the entire team was rushing towards the backcourt to defend, and the Manchester United generals almost collapsed when they saw this scene!

Ronaldo smiled and ran to the sidelines to celebrate.

The momentum at Elland Road was like the earth was shaking.

Outside the stadium, in the square, in the pub, the city of Leeds seemed to be in a small earthquake due to the collective carnival of the fans!

The smile that could not be concealed on Shen Hao's face was full of pride.

Ferguson indeed looked extremely unnatural.

The final battle for the championship.

Leeds United settled the battle in just half the game? !
